Abstract

A new anthology from the Centre for Alcohol and Drug Research, BSS, Aarhus University called Alcohol – part of Danish culture for better or worse, addresses alcohol and how its use is closely intertwined with the Danish culture. No other psychoactive substance is such a timelessly hot topic in Denmark as is alcohol, setting it apart from all other Nordic (and Western) countries. For decades, Danes have enjoyed alcohol in festive contexts, but also when relaxing with friends and family and as part of Danish hygge (cosiness). Alcohol – and even a high consumption of alcohol – is normalised across generations and is associated with great enjoyment for many Danes.
